Welcome to Mr. Wink's HRHS English I Honors Wikispace. This will be our "virtual" home for this year.
An Introduction to Wikis
A wikispace is a communal space for sharing information and ideas. Unlike blogs, which only have one primary contributor, anyone who is a member can add, modify, and delete contents, making it an ideal "cyberspace" for collaboration.
A few basic principles:
Only modify contents on your own pages (check this by verifying the page title at the top).
Avoid using full names and revealing personal information (this is a public access site).
If you would like to communicate with your classmates, use their usernames (see handout).
Always verify information, attribute sources, and proofread carefully.
Follow standard grammatical conventions ... this isn't your cell phone and you aren't texting your friends!
